The research found a way to measure hair surface changes by analyzing how light reflects off of it, and determined hair cuticle angles vary by hair length and color.

KRT71 gene variants may influence camel hair shape but don't fully explain it.

Hyper-keratinisation in Meibomian glands contributes to gland dysfunction.

Dr. Russell Knudsen's system classifies hair grafts by class, shape, and size for clearer communication in hair restoration surgery.

Pili torti hair is fragile due to loose keratin filaments and weak disulfide bonds.

A new method accurately classifies hair types, showing global hair diversity.

Merkel cells are more densely found in hairless skin areas like palms and soles.

Human hair keratin genes are similar to mouse genes and are specifically expressed in hair follicles.

Diseased horse foot skin shows increased keratin expression, similar to wound healing in mammals.

Careful light microscopy is crucial for detecting mild cases of pili annulati, which weakens hair and varies widely in expression.

Rat vibrissa follicles are useful for studying hair growth cycles, especially the transition from pro-anagen to anagen.

Pubic hair has a thicker, more protective outer layer than scalp hair, possibly due to evolution.

The study improved understanding of keratin fiber structure by showing consistent microfibril diameter but varying distances and electron density profiles.

The southern elephant seal's skin layer helps waterproof the skin by being tightly connected to hair shafts.

The method effectively analyzes skin tissue changes, especially in the arrector pili muscle and nerve fibers with hair follicles.

Dynamic, light touch is sensed through a common mechanism involving Piezo2 channels in sensory axons.

Harp seals have different innervation patterns in their whiskers, with lateral whiskers having more axons than medial ones.

Too much keratin 16 in mice skin causes abnormal skin thickening and structure.

Key genes for mink fur have been identified, aiding conservation efforts.

High levels of ERK activity are key for tissue regeneration in spiny mice, and activating ERK can potentially redirect scar-forming healing towards regenerative healing in mammals.

Family members have similar hair protein patterns, which could be useful for genetic studies.

For best curls and hair health, use keratin and ceramide after rinsing, or skip rinsing for stable curls.

Akt2 protein is essential for normal cell division in early mouse embryos.

PrEP doesn't increase STI risk in high-risk men, anti-androgen drugs may lower ICU admission for male COVID-19 patients, a 3-point injection is better for crow's feet, and the 'Geriatric-8' tool could help assess frailty in older skin cancer patients.
